The viking to slay Gerrards Villa tenure - simply loveleh

Hat trick of hat tricks would be incredible.

Has that ever happened in the Prem?

Fair chance it could on Saturday.

Who would be surprised either? A quite ridiculous footballer.

I said before Bournemouth (great timing) I think he can get a hat trick in every game without playing that well.

He obviously won’t, but he could, because the other 10 players create enough chances for him and he is so clinical inside the box.

For me, this is what’s so ridiculous about Haaland at the moment, he’s not playing blindingly special football, even before we think about how Pep will improve him, there’s so much more that he showed with Dortmund we haven’t seen yet.

By April he might be the best player in world football.

Villa are absolute wank.

Even Slippy last night said he is worried about his future. When managers start talking like that you know that they have started to lose the dressing room

Think Foden and Bernardo will be rested with KDB and Mahrez coming in. Haaland and Alvarez must start again.

5-0 another Haaland hattrick.

Up the fucking blues

Villa are wank but if we allow Luiz to score from a corner directly like he has the last two games ,someone needs sacking

You perhaps ?-)

Oh god, we’ve reached “do we play better without KdB” point already…

I've said for some time that I believe a midfield 3 of Rodri, Gundogan and Bernardo gives us the best balance.
